The Recreational Aviation Foundation is pleased to have teamed up with AOPA’s Air Safety Institute on more than fifty of their in-person live seminars, “From Peaks to Pavement: Applying Lessons from the Backcountry”. This ambitious six-month series just concluded, with 88 separate two-hour sessions held across the country. A total of 8,526 people attended the seminars.
Thirty-five key RAF volunteers participated with ASI’s select seminar leaders during the presentations. Some of the sessions were standing-room only, attracting over 200 attendees. RAF Safety and Education Committee chair Jack Tyler said, “Our RAF volunteers, all with backcountry flying experience, had a great time meeting attendees, exchanging information on destinations, and ’talking safety.’”
